Sonia O'Sullivan: Running to Stand Still

From inside cover: "Where were you and what were you doing when Sonia O'Sullivan won the sweetest medal in our sporting history? Were you roaring or were you crying or were you praying? Were you in work gathered around a TV or at home on the edge of the sofa? Were you in the kitchen unable to watch, just waring for the sounds that would tell you? Sonia at the Olympics. No other athlete, no other event could stir such emotion. This is the story of the year that led to Homebush Bay. It ends in triumph and redemption but is a story of uncertainty. A story of sweat, fragility and bravery. Candid and complete, this is a story of obsession and love. This is Sonia's story."
